Introduction
Trip Status / Identification
Trip Resetting
The purpose of this chapter is to provide detailed information regarding the
protective trip and warning functions that the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module adds
to the E1 Plus Overload Relay. In this chapter, you will find considerable mention
given to parameters as they relate to these functions. For complete descriptions of
the programming parameters, refer to Chapter 6- Device Parameters and Tags.
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module determines trip status and identification
through monitoring of reference signals inside the E1 Plus Overload Relay. On
power-up, it assumes that the E1 Plus Overload Relay is in a non-tripped
condition. For definitive feedback on trip status of the E1 Plus Overload Relay,
one of the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module inputs may be wired to the N.O. auxiliary
contact (terminals 97 and 98) of the E1 Plus Overload Relay. Parameters 40 and
41 are used to configure the assignment of the inputs. For this function, use the
“OL Contact” configuration.
The following options are available for resetting a tripped E1 Plus Overload Relay
with an E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module:
• Blue mechanical reset button located on the front of the E1 Plus Overload
Relay
• Setting Parameter 14, Tri p Re set , to “Reset trip”
• Setting the trip reset bit in an output assembly from a logic controller
• Using a push button (N.O. contact configuration) wired to one of the
EtherNet/IP module inputs, programming the corresponding input
assignment parameter (40 or 41) to “Trip Reset”
• Setting the CIP Tag, Trip_Reset, to 1
Trip and Warning Enable
Setting parameter 16, Reset Mode, to “Automatic” does not result in
other reset commands being ignored.
Parameter 12, Trip E na bl e, allows the installer to enable or disable the jam trip
protective function.
Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 201113
Chapter 2
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Parameter 13, War n in g En a bl e , allows the installer to enable or disable the
overload, jam, underload, and communication warning protective functions.
ATTENTION: The Trip Enable settings should not be altered during
machine operation, as unexpected behavior could occur. This may
result in an unintended actuation of controlled industrial
equipment, with the potential for machine damage or serious
injury to personnel.
Overload and Phase Loss
Protection
Thermal overload and phase loss trip protection is provided exclusively by the E1
Plus Overload Relay. The E1 Plus Overload Relay provides uninterrupted
protection to the motor, even in the event of an E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module
failure. Settings for FLA and trip class are found directly on the E1 Plus Overload
Relay.
The reset mode DIP switch adjustment is overridden by the E1 Plus
EtherNet/IP module parameter 16, OL Reset Mode, while the E1 Plus
EtherNet/IP module is powered.
Overload Warning
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module continuously monitors the E1 Plus Overload
Relay's percentage of thermal utilization signal. Parameter 2,%Therm Utilized,
provides this value.
Parameter 17, OL Warn Level, is used to adjust the setpoint to alert for an
impending overload trip and is adjustable from 0…100% TCU.
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will indicate an overload warning if all the
following conditions are met:
• No warning currently exists
• Overload warning is enabled
• %Therm Utilized is equal to or greater than OL Warn Level
When the overload warning conditions are satisfied, the following will occur:
• Bit 0 in Parameter 4, Wa r n in g S t at us , will go to “1”
• Bit 1 of Parameter 10, Device Status, will go to “1”
%Therm Utilized will stabilize at a value of approximately 88% with
the motor operating continuously at rated current.
14Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 2011
Chapter2
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Jam Protection
Motor current greater than the motor's nameplate rating can indicate a high
overload or stall condition, such as an overloaded conveyor or jammed gear.
These conditions can result in overheating of the motor, and equipment damage.
Rapid jam fault detection helps to minimize damage and loss of production.
By continuously monitoring the motor current level signal as a percentage of the
E1 Plus Overload Relay's dial FLA setting, the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module
allows jam trip and warning capability.
Jam Trip
The following parameters are available for configuring the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP
Module's jam trip performance:
• Parameter 18, Jam Inhibit Time, allows the installer to inhibit a jam trip
from occurring during the motor starting sequence. It is adjustable from
0…250 seconds.
• Parameter 19, Jam Trip Delay, allows the installer to define the time period
a jam condition must be present before a trip occurs. It is adjustable from
5…250 seconds.
• Parameter 20, Jam Trip Level, allows the installer to define the current at
which the E1 Plus Overload Relay will trip on a jam. It is user-adjustable
from 150…600% of the FLA dial setting.
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will command the E1 Plus Overload Relay to
trip if all the following conditions are met:
• No trip currently exists
• Jam Protection is enabled
• Jam Inhibit Time has expired
• The motor current is greater than the Jam Trip Level for a time period
greater than the Jam Trip Delay
When the conditions for a jam trip are satisfied, the following will occur:
• Bit 2 in Parameter 3, Trip Sta tus , will go to “1”
• Bit 0 in Parameter 10, Device Status, will go to “1”
• The E1 Plus Overload Relay's trip relay contacts (95 and 96) will open
• Out A will be placed in their Protection Fault State (if so programmed)
The Protection Fault State of OUT A is defined by parameter 34 (OUTA
Pr FltState) and parameter 35 (OUTA Pr FltValue).
The jam inhibit timer starts after the load current transitions from 0 A
to 30% FLA. The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module does not begin
monitoring for a jam condition until the Jam Inhibit Time expires.
Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 201115
Chapter 2
IMPORTANT
Jam Warning
Parameter 21, Jam Warn Level, allows the installer to define the current at which
the EtherNet Module will indicate a warning. It is user-adjustable from
100…600% FLA.
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will indicate a Jam warning if:
• No warning currently exists
• Jam Warning is enabled
• Jam Inhibit Time has expired
• The motor current is equal to or greater than the Jam Warn Level
When the Jam Warning conditions are satisfied, the following will occur:
• Bit 2 in Parameter 4, Warning Status, will go to “1”
• Bit 1 in Parameter 10, Device Status, will go to “1”
The Jam Warning function does not include a time delay feature.
Once the Jam Inhibit Time has expired, the Jam Warning indication is
instantaneous.
Underload Protection
Motor current less than a specific level may indicate a mechanical malfunction in
the installation, such as a torn conveyor belt, damaged fan blade, broken shaft, or
worn tool. Such conditions may not harm the motor, however, rapid detection
may help to minimize equipment damage and loss of production.
Underload Warning
The following parameters are available for configuring the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP
Module's underload warning performance:
• Parameter 22, UL Inhibit Time, allows the installer to inhibit an underload
indication from occurring during the motor starting sequence. It is
adjustable from 0…250 seconds.
• Parameter 23, UL Warn Level, allows the installer to define the current at
which the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will indicate a warning. It is useradjustable from 30…100% of the FLA dial setting.
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will immediately indicate an Underload
warning if:
• No warning currently exists
• Underload Warning is enabled
• UL Inhibit Time has expired
• The motor current is less than the UL Warn Level
16Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 2011

IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
When the Underload Warning conditions are satisfied, the following will occur:
• Bit 3 in Parameter 4, War n in g S ta tu s , will go to “1”
• Bit 1 of Parameter 10, Device Status, will go to “1”
The Underload Warning function does not include a time delay
feature. Once the UL Inhibit Time has expired, the Underload warning
indication is instantaneous.
Communication Fault
Protection
A disruption of the communication link between the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP
Module and a EtherNet/IP network can result in the loss of application control
and/or critical process diagnostic data. Rapid communication fault detection
helps minimize potential damage due to uncontrolled or unmonitored
applications.
Comm Fault Warning
The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module will indicate a Comm Fault warning if:
• No warning currently exists
• Comm Fault Warning is enabled
• The EtherNet/IP Module experiences a loss of communication
When the Comm Fault warning conditions are satisfied, the following will occur:
• The Network Status LED will blink red or become solid red
• Bit 5 in Parameter 4, War n in g S ta tu s , will go to “1”
• Bit 1 of Parameter 10, Device Status, will go to “1”
The Comm Fault State of OUT A is defined by Parameter 36 (OUTA En
FltState) and parameter 37 (OUTA En FltValue).
Communication Idle
Protection
When a programmable controller is placed into the program mode, the execution
of its ladder program is suspended, and any connected networks go to an idle
state. If inadvertent, this can result in the loss of application control and/or
critical process diagnostic data. Rapid communication idle detection helps
minimize the potential damage due to uncontrolled or unmonitored
applications.

Configure an E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Module To
Operate on the Network
Introduction
Determining Network
This chapter describes how to configure an E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module to
operate on an EtherNet/IP network.
When you first install an E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module, the module is Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled.
To operate an EtherNet/IP network, you must define these parameters.
Parameters

• 224.255.255.255...255.255.255.255
network ID for multiple physical networks. Routing outside of the site continues by dividing the IP
address into a net ID and a host ID via the class. Inside a site, the subnet mask is used to redivide
the IP address into a custom network ID portion and host ID portion.
If you change the subnet mask of an already-configured module, you must cycle power to
the module for the change to take effect.

IMPORTANT
Check with your Ethernet network administrator to determine if you need to
specify these parameters.
Setting the IP Network
Address
Assign Network
Parameters via the BOOTP/
DHCP Utility
E1 Plus EtherNet/IP modules ship with DHCP enabled. You can set the network
Internet Protocol (IP) address by:
• Using a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)/Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) server, such as the Rockwell Automation BOOTPDHCP Server Utility, which is included with Rockwell Software’s
RSLinx™ Classic software
• Using a web browser and MAC Scanner software
By default, the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module is DHCP enabled. The BOOTP/
DHCP utility is a standalone program that is located in the:
• BOOTP-DHCP Server folder accessed from the Start menu.
Before you start the BOOTP/DHCP utility, make sure you have the
hardware MAC ID of the module, which is printed on the side of the
E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module. The MAC ID has a format similar to: 000b-db-14-55-35.
This utility recognizes DHCP-enabled devices and provides an interface to
configure a static IP address for each device.
To assign network parameters via the BOOTP/DHCP utility, perform this
procedure.
1. Start the BOOTP/DHCP software.
2. Select Tool → Network Settings.
3. If appropriate for the network, enter the subnet mask, gateway address,
primary/secondary server addresses, and domain name.
4. Click OK.
The Request History panel displays the hardware addresses of modules
issuing BOOTP or DHCP requests.
20Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 2011
5. Double-click the MAC address of the module to be configured.
The MAC address is printed on the side of the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP
module. The format of the hardware address resembles
00-0b-db-14-55-35.
The New Entry window appears with the module’s Ethernet Address
(MAC).
Chapter3
6. Enter the IP address, host name, and a module description.
7. Click OK.
8. Re-cycle power to the module. To recycle power, remove and reapply the
control power terminals A1 and A2.
9. To permanently assign this configuration to the module, highlight the
module in the Relation List panel and click the Disable BOOTP/DHCP
button.
When module power is recycled, it uses the assigned configuration and
does not issue a DHCP request.
If you do not select the Disable BOOTP/DHCP button, on a power cycle,
the module clears the current IP configuration and will again begin
sending DHCP requests.
Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 201121

Assign Network
Parameters Via a Web
Browser and MAC Scanner
Software
In the event that a user does not have access to a DHCP software utility, a user
can assign network parameters via a web browser, such as Microsoft’s Internet
Explorer, and Media Access Control (MAC) scanner software, such as MAC
Scanner from Colasoft - http://www.colasoft.com/
configure the module using this method.
. Follow these steps to
1. Locate and identify the MAC ID printed on the label of the E1 Plus
EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module. This address has a format that is similar
to: 00-0b-db-14-55-35
2. Connect the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module to the same Wide
Area Network (WAN) as your personal computer.
3. Start the MAC scanner software
4. Select the appropriate subnet to scan for available MAC addresses.
5. Scan the Subnet for all available MAC addresses.
6. Identify the IP address assigned to the MAC ID of the E1 Plus EtherNet/
IP Side Mount Module. The IP address will have a format that is similar to
192.168.0.100.

7. Open a web browser and type the IP address on the address line to view the
internal web server of the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module.
8. Select Administration Settings->Network Configuration to change the
IP address of the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module to a static IP
address.
9. The module will prompt the user for a User Name and Password. Use
“Administrator” for the user name, leave the password field blank, and
select OK.
Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 201123

10. Assign the appropriate network settings per the recommendation of the
network administrator for the network that this module will be
communicating on and select Apply.
Other Factors to Consider
When Assigning Network
Parameters
11. Recycle the power on the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module for the
communications changes to take affect. To recycle power, remove and
reapply the control power terminals A1 and A2.
There are other factors to consider when assigning networks parameters, which
include:
• Network isolation from or integration into the plant/enterprise network
• Network size
For large networks, even isolated networks, it might be more convenient
and safer to use a BOOTP/DHCP server rather than RSLinx software.
The BOOTP/DHCP server also limits the possibility of assigning
duplicate IP addresses.
• Company policies and procedures dealing with plant floor network
installation and maintenance
• Level of involvement by IT personnel in plant floor network installation
and maintenance
• Type of training offered to control engineers and maintenance personnel
If you use the Rockwell Automation BOOTP or DHCP server in an uplinked
subnet where an enterprise DHCP server exists, a module may get an address
from the enterprise server before the Rockwell Automation utility even sees the
24Rockwell Automation Publication 193-UM012B-EN-P - June 2011
Chapter3
module. You might have to disconnect from the uplink to set the address and
configure the module to retain its static address before reconnecting to the
uplink. This is not a problem if you have node names configured in the module
and leave DHCP enabled.
ATTENTION: The E1 Plus EtherNet/IP module must be assigned a
fixed network address. The IP address of this module must not be
dynamically provided.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in unintended
machine motion or loss of process control.
Duplicate IP Address
Detection
When you change the IP address or connect the module to an EtherNet/IP
network, the module checks to make sure that the IP address assigned to this
module does not match the address of any other network device. If the module
determines that another device on the network with a matching IP address, the
EtherNet/IP port of the module goes into conflict mode.
• NETWORK STATUS LED indicator is solid red.
To resolve this conflict, use the instructions in this chapter to change the IP
address of the module. Then cycle power to the module or reset the modules by
disconnecting and then reconnecting the EtherNet cable.
Two modules could possibly detect a conflict simultaneously. If this occurs,
perform this procedure.
1. Remove the module with the incorrect IP address and correct its conflict.
2. Cycle power or disconnect the EtherNet cable from the second module
and reconnect it.
Behavior of Modules With Duplicate IP Addresses
Devices in conflict over an IP address behave differently depending on whether
connections have been established to either of the modules and whether both
modules support duplicate IP address detection.
Table 5 - Device Conflict Over Duplicate IP Addresses
If Then
Both modules support duplicate IP address detectionThe first started module uses and retains its IP address.
The other module will detect a conflict, give up the IP address and enter conflict mode.
Both modules support duplicate IP address detection

One module supports duplicate IP address detection
and a second module does not

One of them surrenders the IP address and enters conflict mode.
The second module generally keeps its IP address, regardless of which module first obtains the
IP address.
The module that supports duplicate IP address detection will detect the conflict and give up the
IP address.

DNS Addressing
Install EDS File
To further qualify a module’s address, use DNS addressing to specify a host name
for a module, which also includes specifying a domain name and DNS servers.
DNS addressing makes it possible to set up similar network structures and IP
address sequences under different domains.
DNS addressing is only necessary if you refer to the module by host name, such as
in path descriptions in MSG instructions.
To use DNS addressing, perform this procedure.
1. Assign a host name to the module.
A network administrator should be able to assign a host name. Valid host
names should be IEC-1131-3 compliant.
2. Configure the module's parameters.
3. In addition to the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address, configure
a host name for the module, domain name, and primary/secondary DNS
server addresses.
Before the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module is configured to
communicate on an EtherNet/IP network, it must be registered to the software
that configures the network such as Rockwell Software’s RSLinx Classic and
RSNetWorx for EtherNet/IP software. A user registers the module by installing
an Electronic Data Sheet (EDS file). The EDS file for the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP
Side Mount Module can be obtained from one of two locations:
• Embedded in the module
• Allen-Bradley EDS file download website
Download EDS File Embedded in the Module
The EDS file for the E1 Plus EtherNet/IP Side Mount Module is embedded
within the module. After the IP address for the module has been configured,
connect the module to same Ethernet network as a personal computer. Using a
web browser on the personal computer, a user can download the EDS file using a
web browser by following these steps:
